Having worked in a variety of industries over my career I must admit that I have found the most enjoyment, passion and reward come from that of being engaged with the Construction and Property sectors. Until 2019 I was the Midlands Regional Manager for the National Federation of Builders, and I have been a judge for the Midlands Residential Property Awards, West Midlands Property Awards & EEM 2019 Building Communities Awards.
